(1)		Investments consist of U.S. Treasury securities classified as trading securities and marketable equity securities, of which $2,675,980 is held by our insurance entities at March 31, 2025. Marketable equity securities excludes Sky Harbour Group Corporation (“Sky Harbour”) Class A common stock as we account for our 16.1% stake (as measured at March 31, 2025) under the equity method.
(2)		Noncontrolling interests are primarily related to third party capital raised within our Build for Rent Fund as well as within our 24^th Street commercial real estate funds.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, “Net Other Expense” included non-cash losses of $2.3 million from unconsolidated affiliates mainly related to our equity method position in Sky Harbour and $0.5 million in interest expense. These items were partially offset by $0.7 million in other investment income mainly driven by $1.3 million in realized gains on the sale of 220,889 shares of Sky Harbour Class A common stock and a $1.2 million unrealized gain on the Sky Harbour warrants held by Boston Omaha, which was partially offset by other investment losses of $2.0 million within BOAM primarily related to the changes in the fair value of the remaining assets within the 24th Street Funds and BFR Fund, and interest and dividend income of $0.3 million.

Our investment in Sky Harbour Class A common stock and warrants was valued at $92.2 million on our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025. If our investment in Sky Harbour Class A common stock was accounted for at fair value based on its quoted market price (currently valued using equity method accounting), then our total investment in Sky Harbour Class A common stock and warrants would be valued at $182.2 million as of March 31, 2025.

Cash inflow from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $2.6 million, compared to a cash inflow of $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Our book value per share was $16.95 at March 31, 2025, compared to $16.99 at December 31, 2024.

As of March 31, 2025, we had 30,872,876 shares of Class A common stock and 580,558 shares of Class B common stock outstanding.

As of May 13, 2025, we had 30,872,876 shares of Class A common stock and 580,558 shares of Class B common stock outstanding.
